PoE-Out Configuration
PoE Configuration is supported on all MikroTik devices with PoE-Out interfaces, the configurations can be edited from the RouterOS and SwOS interfaces.
...
PoE-Out can be configured under the menu. Each port can be controlled independently.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| name () | Name of an interface |
| poe-out (auto-on | forced-on | off; Default: auto-on) | Specifies PoE-Out state
|
| poe-priority (integer:0..99 | any; Default: 10) | poe-priority specifies the importance of PoE-Out ports, in cases when a total PoE-Out limit is reached, interface with the lowest port priority will be powered off first. Highest priority is 0, the lowest priority is 99. If there are 2 or more ports with the same priority then port with the smallest port number will have a higher priority. For example, if ether2 and ether3 have the same priority and over-current is detected then PoE-Out on ether3 will be turned off. Every 6 seconds ports will be checked for a possibility to provide PoE-Out if it was turned off due to port priority. |
| poe-voltage (auto | low | high; Default: auto) | A feature that allows us to manually switch between two voltage outputs on PoE-Out ports. It will take effect only on PSE with switchable voltage modes (CRS112-8P-4S-IN, CRS328-24P-4S+RM, netPower 16P, CRS354-48P-4S+2Q+RM). |
| poe-lldp-enabled ( yes / no; Default: no) | Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a layer-2 Ethernet protocol for managing devices. LLDP allows an exchange of information between a PSE and a PD. |
| Info |
|---|
Note: If poe-voltage=auto and poe-out is set to "forced-on", LOW voltage will be used by default. If the PD supports only high voltage, make sure you also set poe-voltage=high when forcing the PoE output. |
...
By default PoE-Out, event logging is enabled and uses "warning" and "info" topics to notify the user about PoE-Out state changes. Log entries will be added to each PoE-Out state change. Important logs will be added with a "warning" topic, informative logs will be added with the "info" topic. When PoE LLDP is enabled, LLDP status updates are available in the device logs, for example:
| Info |
|---|

Possible denial reasons:

To avoid unnecessary logging in cases when PD is not powered because of current-too-low, RouterOS will filter such events, and add one log per every 512 current-too-low events.
